Why TruNorth

Built in Kansas City by people who aren't going anywhere.

Over the last several years a lot of the service companies Kansas City grew up with have been bought by out-of-town groups. The name on the truck stays the same. The people making the decisions don't live here anymore.

TruNorth Mechanical is different by design. We bought an established Kansas City heating and cooling business that has been serving the metro for 30 years, and we're building on it with owners who live here, raise our families here and plan to be here for a long time.

We started this company to do business the right way: take care of the people who work here, take care of the customers who trust us, and give back to the community that gave us everything. That's what a higher standard means to us. It isn't a slogan. It's how we make decisions.

Lifelong Kansas City

Meet the owners

TruNorth Mechanical is owned and run by two lifelong Kansas City, Missouri residents. Here's why they built it, in their own words.

Jeff Wilp and Rusty Meyer · Kansas City, Missouri
I've lived in Kansas City my whole life, and I've watched good local companies get bought up and turned into call centers. I didn't want that for the trades I care about. We built TruNorth so there would be a heating and cooling company in this town owned by people you might actually run into at the hardware store. If we do right by our people and our customers, the rest takes care of itself.
Jeff WilpPresident, TruNorth Mechanical
Kansas City, Missouri, born and raised. When Jeff and I talked about starting this, it came down to one question: could we build a company we'd be proud to send to our own mothers' houses? That's the standard. Show up when you said you would, tell the truth about what's wrong, charge a fair price and treat every home like it matters, because to the people living in it, it does.

Questions

Straight answers for Kansas City homeowners

How much does a furnace replacement cost in Kansas City?

In the Kansas City metro, most homeowners pay roughly $4,500 to $9,000 for a standard-efficiency gas furnace installed, and $7,000 to $12,000 or more for a high-efficiency or larger system. The price depends on the size of your home, the condition of your ductwork, the efficiency rating you choose and whether the air conditioner is replaced at the same time. TruNorth Mechanical gives written, itemized estimates with no hidden fees, and we'll tell you honestly when a repair makes more sense than a replacement. Request an estimate and we'll come out, measure and give you a real number for your house.

Do you service both the Missouri and Kansas sides of the metro?

Yes. TruNorth Mechanical serves the whole Kansas City metropolitan area, on both sides of the state line. On the Missouri side that includes Kansas City, Lee's Summit, Independence, Blue Springs, Liberty, Belton, Raymore and the Northland. On the Kansas side it includes Overland Park, Olathe, Leawood, Lenexa, Shawnee, Prairie Village, Kansas City, Kansas and Leavenworth County. Our technicians are licensed to work in both states. If your town isn't on our service area list, ask anyway. We're probably closer than you think.

What should I do if my heat goes out overnight?

Start with the simple things. Check that the thermostat is set to heat and has fresh batteries, check the furnace breaker in your electrical panel, and make sure the power switch on or near the furnace (it looks like a light switch) is on. Replace a clogged filter if you have a spare. If none of that helps, don't try to repair the furnace yourself. Close off unused rooms, open cabinet doors under sinks on exterior walls and let faucets drip so pipes don't freeze. Then send us an estimate request with "As soon as possible" selected and a member of the TruNorth team will reach out at the start of the next business day.

How often should I have my HVAC system serviced in Kansas City?

Twice a year: the air conditioner in spring before the first hot stretch, and the furnace in fall before the first cold snap. Kansas City weather works both ends of the system hard, with humid 95-degree summers and winters that regularly drop into the single digits. A seasonal tune-up cleans coils and burners, checks refrigerant and gas pressures, tests safety controls and catches worn parts before they fail on the worst day of the year. It also keeps most manufacturer warranties valid. TruNorth Mechanical offers planned maintenance for homes and for light commercial buildings such as offices, shops and churches across the metro.

Is TruNorth Mechanical a new company?

TruNorth Mechanical is a new name built on an established Kansas City heating and cooling business that has served the metro for 30 years. The company is locally owned by Jeff Wilp and Rusty Meyer, both lifelong Kansas City, Missouri residents, and it serves both the Missouri and Kansas sides of the metro. Many local service companies have been sold to out-of-area groups in recent years. TruNorth Mechanical was created to keep this one owned by people who live and raise their families here, with the same technicians and the same commitment to doing the job right.

Are you related to other companies called TruNorth or True North Mechanical?

No. TruNorth Mechanical in Kansas City is an independent, locally owned company and is not affiliated with similarly named businesses in North Carolina, Georgia, Minnesota, Alberta or anywhere else. We only serve the Kansas City metropolitan area in Missouri and Kansas. Our website is trunorthkc.com and you can reach us through the estimate form on this page. If you found us through a search, make sure the listing says Kansas City before you rely on it.
